Discovering RNA editing sites in model organisms provides an insight into their adaptations in addition to finding potential sites for gene expression regulation. In this study, we focused on the grin1b gene of Zebrafish due to its important...

In human hypertrophy and heart failure, death often occurs following an arrhythmia. Researchers are still looking for the underlying causes of these arrhythmias. It has been determined that ion channels control cardiac rhythm, and that...

RNA editing is a mechanism which is used to increase the number of possible protein products from a specific gene. The catalytic enzymes for RNA editing are known to be present in a wide variety of organisms, including many different insects. It...

The RNA molecule is responsible for providing information to the cell to assemble proteins specified by the DNA. A specific type of RNA editing can convert individual adenosines into inosine by an enzyme called adenosine deaminase acting on RNA...
